The Fifteenth Antiphon
(Procession with the Cross)
It is the custom in the Antiochian and Greek Churches to make a procession with the Cross during the chanting of
the 15th Antiphon as the people kneel. In some places, it is customary for the faithful to hold lighted candles for
the procession and the remainder of the service.
The procession takes place in this way:
1) When the 13th Antiphon has been completed by the chanter, the procession begins to form inside the
sanctuary with the altar boys carrying the torches, fans, and incense.
2) Towards the end of the chanting of the 14th Antiphon, the priest censes the Cross nine times, then removes
the icon of the Body of Christ from the Cross and places the Body on the Altar.
3) At the end of the 14th Antiphon the church is darkened and remains dimly lit through the end of the service.
4) As the priest begins to chant slowly the 15th Antiphon, he carries the Cross through the church in the same
manner as the Great Entrance during the Divine Liturgy.
5) When the procession reaches the middle of the solea, the priest carries the Cross around the stand three times
and then places the Cross in its stand.
6) The priest goes to the altar and brings the icon of the Body of Christ to place it on the Cross.
7) The priest censes the Cross nine times.
8) Finally, when the chanter begins to repeat the 15th Antiphon, the priest and the other clergy make three
prostrations before the Cross, kiss it, and then return to the sanctuary with the altar boys.
